Delete all components?!

Hey all,

 

I was wondering if there's a way to delete all child components when deleting the master (or just all components from a page in general)?

 

I realise this is probably a very odd one but it would save a lot of hassle when creating style guides, making sure nothing is missing!

 

Thanks,

A

Not really, but if you don't want to overlook any child instances, add something very colorful to the master, before deleting it. So you can clearly see all those instances popping up like flowers in a field 🙂

This needs to be a feature request as if there are 300 screens there is no way of selecting all child components...  I don't want to spend my entire day individually clicking 300 hamburger menus.

Thanks Ares!

 

Think there is a possibility of a feature request for this type of thing?
